credence! — so long as the results of this drug upon human beings remain unknown and unverified. All our hope of the success of "phenosulfazole" hangs on its success with mice and their recovery from the diseases directly connected with the nervous system.
Chemical researchers have failed so far to track down the poisons that cause not only infantile
paralysis, but many others besides, such as influenza and the ordinary cold. And it appears that this "phenosulfazole" may open new doors to new victories in the world of medicine.
Whenever an irritating cold strikes you and you call your handkerchief to your aid to be rid of it, does it ever cross your mind how far this little handkerchief goes in spreading and distributing the germs of the cold? Here is an experiment, that you may be more careful in the future.
211 handkerchiefs were distributed to a group of volunteers suffering from colds, and they were allowed to use the handkerchiefs for two consecutive days. Then the handkerchiefs were collected and shaken violently inside a special room, and the germs were counted: in each handkerchief there were 136,000 germs!
The mere touching of a used handkerchief distributes 15,000 germs, and at times the figure reaches 50,000. And these are soaked into every part of the fabric! Will madam kindly remember these facts, and teach them to her children and to all who are in her care?!
A new treatment for whooping cough, which strikes
...children... is for them to ride in an airplane that carries them up into the layers of the atmosphere to a height ranging between nine thousand and twelve thousand feet.
This treatment has spread in Switzerland, where its rate of success has reached eighty percent.
And the doctors of Paris took this treatment over from the doctors of Switzerland; but instead of climbing into the upper layers of the atmosphere, they place the sick child in a chamber whose air — in temperature, dryness, and density — is like the air found at a height of nine thousand feet.
